Phantom Flyers RC Club 1 | RC Flying Field Weather

Live conditions for this AMA model airfield in Saint Charles, MO, decoded from the nearest reporting station KSET, 5.4 nm away: wind, gusts, visibility, and an RC flyability read before you drive to the field.

The runway orientation (14/32) is confirmed by the club and drives the live crosswind meter on this page. The site is an FAA-Recognized Identification Area (FRIA), where eligible members can fly without Remote ID broadcast equipment. Published field hours: 8 a.m. - Sunset. 12 other AMA fields sit within 50 miles.
